ABSTRACT:
Rituals and traditions are fading away as the new generations are not paying attention to it, considering it a waste of time so it’s dire need of time to revive the value and beauty of those rituals and traditions via picking out the scientific meaning behind them. This paper will elaborate the relationship between nature and culture. It will enhance the understanding of the coming generations about the prevalent cultures and rituals by exploring the science behind it. Nothing is without any cause. Each and every occurrence whether natural or anthropogenic has some purpose/cause. Nature worship is not just about worshipping natural objects and phenomena but scientifically it is to keep humanity safe and sound in depth.
